My usb printer keeps going offline. This appears to have started
a couple of weeks ago, but I can't pin the time down more
precisely than that. The symptom is that a message similar to
this:
Apr 4 13:28:43 histidine /kernel: ulpt0: offline
comes up after anything other than a tiny print job. A power
cycle of the printer fixes things. The printer is a Hewlett
Packard LaserJet 2100M with 8MB of memory and PostScript. It is
interfaced with: Hewlett Packard HP JetDirect J4135A, rev
1.10/1.00
It prints OK with a parallel cable.
Any pointers to debugging this will be appreciated. (I should
also point out the Red Herring alert at the bottom of this
message.)

+++++++++ Red Herring alert!
I'm including this only because I did it to try to debug the
problem; it does not seem to be related to the problem at hand.
A search of the mailing list archives reveals a somewhat similar
set of symptoms involving a ulpt-interfaced printer. This was
(tentatively) ascribed to the usb controller and the ethernet
card (a fxp) sharing a pci interrupt. I turned off the
motherboard 3COM 3C905B and plugged in a pci 3C905C (which
reshuffled the irq assignments). This did not cure the problem:
the printer went offline after the first local print job.
